what's your thoughts on maia vs gunny?

i can't wait for this fight.. i almost want to see this fight more than any of the big upcoming ones

i think gunny can pull it off since maia is getting a little older, although he's still looking pretty good it's been against sub-par opponents

maia has a way with making good grapplers look like shit, and I fully expect that trend to carry through in this fight.

he's 38, almost 39, so he's definitely getting up there, but this should be a really easy fight for him. I like Gunnar, I just don't see any way of him winning this fight barring an incredibly lucky punch standing.

The only way I can see Maia winning is by decision. In a five round fight I can see him pulling it off, because everyone with that karate style slows down in the late rounds, but with only three rounds in this fight I don't think he'll be able to do it. Gunny has decent tdd, he should be able to keep the fight standing most of the time if he wants to, and his striking beats maia's by a way bigger margin than Maia's grappling beats his so even if he can't finish it I think Gunny will win the decision.

It's a great fight tho. I was pissed when Maia had to drop out last time and then no one else would fight gunny

gunny's the man

@gunninelson: Finally someone who is not afraid to hug me.

read again what I type, all is there and easy to grasp.
When you are bullied, you are intimidated and the victim and GSP wasn't a victim at all, he beat him, wake up !
and at this game, Koscheck was more intense than Diaz.

Three "whereabouts failures" within a year is equivalent to an actual failed test, this doesn't rly mean anything.

So is Cerrone still fighting for the belt?

Yes

and thats where most won't agree with you. bullying is not defined by the reaction/response to an action, but it is the action itself.
